    Yeah like @Tamworthram says I think the ones that were actually allowed to stand in the election had Putin's permission so they'll be fine. He wants them there, so he can claim it was an actual election, even though we all know it's obviously a nonsense. Any brave soul who actually wanted to be a genuine opposition candidate was simply denied the right to stand in the election (for various spurious reasons), or murdered in a Siberian prison. 
    The sad part is, what does all this mean for Ukraine, is there any real hope of removing the invading Russian army from their land, while Putin remains in power in Russia?  And what will happen to them if the orange entity gets re-elected in November? Are they going to have to come to terms with losing part of their country to Russia?

    They’ll be OK. They did exactly what they were told to do - not put any sort of a fight, don’t do any serious campaigning and don’t criticise or challenge Putin in any way. They’ll just be rolled out again next time and in the meantime confirm what a great guy Putin is and how the best man won.

    And yet it was still important for Putin to go through with this pretend election, with carefully selected opposition candidates trying their best not to do well or annoy Putin in any way.  It's interesting to consider why he even bothers with it, clearly he feels that it serves some purpose.

    Well Putin “wins” with 87% of the vote, as expected, up from the 77% he “won” in 2018
    Lovely stuff!

    Looks like the Freedom of Russia Legion are back. They’ve crossed the border into Kursk and after a battle with local law enforcement and military, they have taken and hold the small town called Tetkino.
    They won’t hold it long but it’s not a good look for Putin ahead of his coronation.
    Ukraine has also destroyed a big Russian refinery in a drone strike, part of their ongoing targeting of Russian infrastructure.

    India has officially asked Russia to stop this through diplomatic channels, which is pretty unprecedented given their, till now, cozy relationship.
    They’ve also been forcing Ukrainian POWs to fight against their countrymen, probably because they’re starting to run low on human resources they can extract from the occupied territories.

    To be fair, if it happened in Britain they would probably be called the same. I would hope however that the ones in Britain would only receive a fine or short jail sentence. I don't think that the Russians will be appearing in public very soon. Unless they're peering over a balcony of course when they somehow slip and fall 13 floors.

    That was massive today. Wildsmith, Nelson and Cashin all immense but special mention to Foz. What a guy.
    Also huge credit to Warne. I think all his subs, whether forced or not, made a difference. It would have been easy to replace Gayle with Waggy but it was crucial to get the extra body in midfield and stop Bolton from dominating. The changes at half time all worked. Wilson was a threat all half, Tommo brought loads of energy and possession, Waggy is still getting back to fitness but good to be able to bring on a striker and he played his part. And how about Elder’s first touch?
    I’ve seen a lot of criticism of Hourihane and today wasn’t his best game - and he wasn’t suited to playing in a midfield 2 against Bolton’s midfield. He will make contributions over the rest of the season though, the whole squad will. I really hope CBT gets a chance soon and shows what he’s made of.
    I would say I enjoyed it today but I really didn’t! I was tense as hell but I really enjoyed the result and the table looks very healthy indeed. Also, the atmosphere was amazing - both sets of fans did their clubs proud. Was very satisfying to shut them up though, didn’t hear a peep out of them after we scored.

    Great result for both of us today. You guys deserve to go up with such amazing support. I honestly can’t wait until we meet in April. The atmosphere is going to be electric with our fans on good form and yours as well who never disappoint. I think we both go up in the automatic promotion places it’s now down to who wins the league. We are blighted by injuries at the moment so I’m nervous for our match and if we play like we did today we could be facing a drubbing. 
     
    I’m from Pompey originally but live in the midlands now so I’m pissed by the change to an evening game like I imagine many here are as well. Best of luck for the rest of the season.

    Apologies if any of this is a repeat of what's already been said but haven't had time to catch up with the thread yet.
    Firstly hats off to Bolton, thought they came and had a decent go. They are probably licking their wounds wondering how they didn't go home with something from that game. I won't begrudge them that as they were much improved from the reverse fixture. Wasn't that impressed with them that day.
    Having said all that I don't want to take away from the shift all of the boys put in. Cashin, Fozzy and Nelson in particular were immense. Fozzy quite rightly the MoM. To put in that level of performance after being out so long was beyond impressive. 
    Big shout out to Wildsmith too. Two world class saves gave us a platform on which that victory was built.
    Absolutely buzzing with that result. Won't be getting much sleep tonight as my adrenaline levels are off the scale.. Trying my best not to get carried away as there will be more twists and turns yet but we are firmly in the driving seat. Every club in that division barring Pompey would love to be in our position right now.
    You beautiful bloody Rams. You've caused us all so much heartache  over the years but it just makes moments like this all the sweeter.

    We deserved that, not because we were better than Bolton but because we stuck at it, grafted and gave everything. Bolton played some good football, runs off the ball, slick passing on the edge of the box but Wildsmith kept their two clear chances out.  Many times on the balance of play we have dropped points despite apparently dominating possession, today it was Bolton’s turn. We had a good first 10, they had a good next 15 then (despite surrendering possession too often) it was an even game but we got the goal. They were tidier, we looked more dangerous on the break. Their No 8 was a nasty narky foul playing knob. 
     
    I often moan about poor first touch, but Elder’s wasn’t t half bad was it 🤪. Loved when early in the second half the crowd had gone quiet and Smithy almost frantically urged to east stand to up it .. they need us and the ground responded.
    Wildsmith gets my MOTM because he came up with goods in the line fire but Fozzie has to a pure bred legend, just seamlessly gelled with his teammates, all that experience, directed headers that find white shirts, positioning, timing .. the lot. He is a Ram.
    The football has had criticism but TBH, the scheme is ok, but our touch and quality individually will need to be a step better when we go up … and we ducking are ! COYR

    Had to be Wilson who bagged the winner after Bolton decided against signing him after his medical there....their loss is our gain, two fold 🤣
    Northampton game next week is massive now as we're the only top 6 team playing so gives us chance to get 3 points on the board. Hopefully a week between games gives Ward, Bradley & Barkhuizen chance to rest up/recover. Sounds like Washington could be back involved too.
